video upload by Maria Calfa-DePaul

"Really enjoy getting to know this synthesizer sometimes I spend time making new patches and that other times I just wanna play and this was one of those times I took one of the patches that they have given us really wonderful presets and I just got lost and I felt like it was Good sleep music cause I was actually falling asleep trying to edit it cause it’s just allowing me to sleep so I hope it does the same for you. It’s a wonderful synthesizer my first real poly analog poly and just thank you for all your kind words and for watching my videos.

My music is available on Spotify band camp for purchase and other streaming services as well as Apple Music and Amazon"

"I never get tired of just sitting down in front of this synth and just picking a preset and playing. I have made a few from scratch but so many of these presets are so awesome this is one of the them. I can just play with this one for hours."

"Just a really quick hand held video of trying out something that 'volca rock' on Youtube did with his more advanced set up.
It works!! I used a cable that had a stereo 1/8 input and two 1/4 inch mono outputs (left right) I put one side into the mono mixer using the 1/4 inch and one side I put into an 1/8 inch adapter into the KP3 which only has 1/8 inch inputs!! It's very cool!"

video upload by Maria Calfa-DePaul

"Temporarily, the Oberheim is living in my son‘s old bedroom and it’s not really a studio because it’s still like a bedroom, but I do have several synths in there. It’s not the most comfortable to play this one’s on a stand so I had to stand while playing I was really tired, but I really wanted to play this synth and I couldn’t sleep so I thought let me just play for about an hour and this is the very last Song I came up with while I was just continually changing presets till I found something I wanted I wasn’t really in the mood to start fiddling and creating sounds cause as I said it wasn’t really comfortable position, but I did wanna play it so I put my headphones on. I took the outs and put it into this little Momixer into (the original one I have which doesn’t get much use now but it’s still functions pretty well with the iphone ) and I put the iPhone on a Tripod and the way I went Put headphones on and played recorded it one take one patch and then I went to bed"

“Time is Now” Creating an Ambient Track Live Using Sonicware Ambient Zero & Oberheim TEO-5 Synths

video upload by Maria Calfa-DePaul

"I am a big fan of sonicware’s liven offerings and I have several and this is becoming one of my favorites because it’s just it’s got a lot of character. It’s great for using with other synths and it’s got a sequencer and I use this live in the video trying to build up an ambient track and then having the TEO be like the headliner where I can riff on it and have it all worked together. I really enjoyed myself during this. It’s a little hard sometimes multitasking but hopefully I was able to provide you with some entertainment and enjoyment."

Tenori-O composition: Ambient Rain by Maria Calfa-DePaul

Published on Jul 13, 2013 ilovemyminimo·26 videos

"This was my second composition written on the Tenori-on Orange by Yamaha. I really am enjoying this instrument and even more now that I discovered how I can use it with a battery pack!! The Tenori has a lot more under the hood then you might think. All the sounds you hear are from the internal sound engine except for a few samples that I imported into the user sample bank. I used these to add to the drums. You will hear which ones they are!. Hope you like it. Tenori-O is a real blast and I hoping to show that you can create a variety of different music with this cool instrument!"

I'm really happy I invested in it."
